Iran must not be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon, as it would be a threat to international security. I urge all sides to step back, return to the negotiating table and prevent further escalation. EU Foreign Ministers will discuss the situation tomorrow.

To the people in LA: Ring doorbells are spies. And Ring allows cops to watch through any doorbell they want without permission or a warrant. Switch off Alexa, Siri. Leave FB, Whatsapp; Use Signal messenger. Decloud. Self-host. VPN everything. Take care & stay safe 💚 Tell your friends in LA.

This is what fascism looks like - using a conspiracy theory about a dehumanized outgroup as a pretext for seizing political power and wielding arbitrary authority. What you read about in the history books is happening right here, right now.

I keep thinking about this and it makes me sick to my stomach. Because the thing where our American political lines are now warping reality means the people who should be most able to defend our nation can’t see the enemy anymore. www.greatpower.us/p/thin-blue-...

Can we now all agree that it was a capital mistake by @vonderleyen to drop the Article 7 and budget conditionality measures against Poland, relying only on an "action plan". She has lost all leverage to ensure the rule of law will be actually fixed.
